Sounds like someone is filtering TCP/443 (HTTPS/SSL) inbound to the Nairobi office. > So i guess I'm pretty much %$&^%& - Since the office is in Nairobi I'm sure > there are a few ISP's between them and NY, and they will all just point to > the other. You might try contacting the Internet provider for the Nairobi office. They're the one entity you have any influence over. If *they* are the one doing the blocking, you might be able to do something about it. For example, some ISPs block common services, and will unblock them if you upgrade your Internet connection to a higher tier of service. Or they might at least know what's going on. Other things you can try include: (1) Use a VPN for everything. You've already discovered this. (2) Use non-standard port numbers. Instead of running your HTTPS/SSL listener on TCP/443, run it on some other port. -- Ben
